Photographer's Note

This one has been shot as I ake a little break from lights this weekend and visited Jantar mantar instead, or the observatory built in earlier times in the heart of Delhi. It is characterised by red architecture and is rather pleasing to the eye.
Jantar Mantar is in the modern city of New Delhi, Delhi. It consists of a collection of architectural astronomy instruments, built by Maharaja Jai Singh II of Jaipur, for his own use, from 1724 onwards. The primary purpose of the observatory was to compile astronomical tables, and to predict the times and movements of the sun, moon and planets. Some of these purposes nowadays would be classified as astrology.

Jai Singh later had another similar observatory, now known by the same name, built for him at Jaipur.

Today the observatory is mainly a tourist attraction, and is significant in the history of astronomy.

Something different from you, but no less pleasing, it looks very good. It reminds me of Luke Skywalker's house from Star Wars IV, which was filmed in Tunisia. The red colour is very striking, and is well balanced by the softer sandy tones and some shadow. I like how you often show a small portion of a larger scene, so we can look at more detail and get a more artistic angle of the subject. It always works well for you. Congratulations and keep them coming!

An excellent composition, clean and well organized.
The orange looks a bot too strong. Naybe the original was strong too, I don't know. Very eye cathcing anyway.
Maybe some extra subject in the picture (like a vase of differenc color, for example) would have better balanced the colors. But one gets what is available, of course !

Hello Aadiil
Captivating graphic presentation of this urban scenery. Not only the lines and shapes are interesting, but also the colours, that convey an intense atmosphere: we can almost "feel" the opposition between the warmth of the sunny areas and the freshness of the shady areas.
TFS & kind regards,

AMzing shot of the stairs!! The framing has been really spectacular!! I really like the features and the clors captured by you!! Great ideas and composition and superbly presented!!GREAT WORK!! THANKS FOR SHARING AND KEEP POSTING!!!

Hi Aadiil
Orange is a really fashionable colour at the moment. We've even just bought some orange cushions for our sofas so naturally I like the colour here. I like the simplicity of your composition playing nicely with the curves, angles and shadows.

Hi Aadiil!
You make me remember the observatory I saw in Jaipur! I visited it and I have not been able to shot a decent picture there: too difficult!
In this one of your is possible to recognize an osservatory at once, and light and colors are so nice!

Hi Aadil,
The view from above is well used for this great shot. I love the reds and beiges, and the segment of architecture which you have chosen with the stairs leading into the archway is nicely done. Great work!

Hi Aadiil,
A remarkable composition, this looks like those pictures of endless stairs you never find out how to look at...
Really excellent colours, a very fine picture.

First, thank you for the nice comment your wrote on my picture of the Jardins Citroën.
I was curious to see who wrote me such comment, and I have to say the discovery of your collection is a very nice thing which illuminates my morning.
Obviously, silhouettes in perspective is one of your favorite subject, and the way you are able to picture it makes myself very modest.
All your portfolio is full of beauties, as this one.
I add your name in my favorite list, in order to remind me sometimes to take a look on your work.

Hi Aadiil,
I love your architecture shots! The are always so full of colour and taken from unconventional perspectives...this makes them very unique and eye-catching. In this one, I like that you have captured three archways along with this wonderful staircase. There is a symmetry to this, but also something original about it. The colours and sharpness are great and I like the choice of thick frame.
Thanks for sharing!

Hello Aadiil
Your pictures from JM makes me yearn to go again...but no time! You create such wonderful compositions from this place, even though this place has a lot to offer for a photographer. Excellent!
